Rumours... Are Its Good!

Lindsay Lohan first appeared on our screens in Parent Trap many moons ago. But with Mean Girls she got renowned and in America she saw this along with successes like 'Confessions of a Teenage Drama Queen' a chance to hit theceleb market in more ways than one... with this her debut album 'Speak!' But dont be fooled by the packaging as though there are some honey sweet pop tunes its mainly bitter teen angst! Heres what I thought...

Here we have more melodic lovey dovey lyrics "til you there was nothing but lonely nights, sacrifice" this is the sorta stuff Avril should be producing because this is really really catchy and instant. It follows the rock pop formula but it has something extra too. 5/5

Its ballad time, but this is brilliant! Very piano lead verses and then rocky guitar chorus's. Lyrically its a little teeny bopper but then thats who she wants to aim to too. "I'm not ill, I dont need to take a pill." 3/5

Title track starts with electro beats and whispers "speak up, speak straight... from your heart". The guitars are still there but not so much. This is a very funky electro pop tune and possibly one of my favs on the album. Its very 'everyone' friendly rock, electro, pop fans the lot. 6/5

A very acoustic ballad, this isnt middle of the road its quite atmospheric. Its not the best song and you could find this on a Natalie Imbruglia album, if wasnt on this one, its a definate grower. 4/5

Electro pop rock again with this tune. This has something about it too. It could be mediocre but there is something good about it. Drum heavy compared to the rest of the album. This is ANOTHER good tune that Avril could do with. 3/5

This sounds almost Suzanne Vega in style from the opening. Theres some good lyrics "I'm above being under". "my only belief is to belief in faith". This is a nice rocky ballad. Theres some clever effects and stops and starts thrown in ofr a bit of a change. 4/5

This really stands out cos is electro R&B pop. This is a song Britney would love to knick. This shows versatility in what has been so far a very very rock pop themed album. This is truely a highlight. Girls Aloud meets Britney... I'm impressed. 6/5

Another rock ballad to remind you where the style of this album really lies. This is quite a deep song lyrically "out of the cofusion static and the noise". This is possibly the best ballad on the whole of the album. Almost despairing vocally and featuring an orchestra in places. 5/5

Britney will be spinning in her marital bed with this tune. This is excellent R&B pop all about being famous and wanting 'privacy'. This tune is awesome and sooooooo needs to be released here. this is possibly the best song on the album, but it seems Lindsay has veared away from overtly pop/R&B... shame. 7/5

Cheers for reading!
